I think that the joy of attending a show like dorkfest was best
described in Katherine Dunn's Geek Love by the narrator Olympia
Binewski, who was a bald, humpbacked albino short-short lady.  To
paraphrase, she basically said that her appearance was sort of a
confession, prompting others to feel as though they could open up to
her and say anything.  Though we don't want a therapy session to
overtake the beautiful rawkin music at the event, we dorks hope that
audience members will embrace their oft berated dorky qualities and
join us in the celebration of everything awkward.
